Introduction

• The traditional vessel built with non-modern technology and has many weaknesses in-term of resistance and propulsion analysis.

• The fishing vessels operating in the Kampung Wadas, Bojonegara, Banten is not consider to the propeller shaft angles and hydrodynamics aspect, they are only oriented to the payload capacity

• Most of fishermen only use they experiences when operating the fishing vessel regarding to the propulsion aspect.

Propulsion

• Flow Velocity V

• Average of Velocity

PB = 2. π.Q.nPS = PB .ηGBPD = PB .ηS. ηGB. ηPDPT = T. VA

• Power and Torque

Q =

Open Water Test

Methodology

The experiment for measure the flow rate was done with five test angle of propeller shaft (22 °, 24 °, 26 °, 28 °, 30 °). The sketch of experiment modelling used 3D Software SolidWork 2010. Figure 2 show the methodology of experimental research.

Conclusions• The experimental of effect shaft angle propeller was done. • The optimum efficiency of advance coefficient, flow velocity and

efficiency open water was shows optimum value at angle of 22 ° where a water flow rate of 0.25 m/s, power of 1601.01 W and ᶯo is 0.16, respectively.
